Metro Music Hall - Kolkata

15th is Poila Boishak ... I am not available on that day.

14th is a state govt. B. R. Ambedkar's holiday
15th is poila boishak and holiday

So make sure that MMH is open.

If i am in town I will definitely meet you all. (though I have a plan to be out of town between 11th till 16th morn)
 
When it comes to NAD, the model is key. Some are legendary models while some, though they sounded fair, had very ordinary build quality. Which model are the offering for 7.5?

I was disappointed, it turned out to be only a NAD AVR and no integrated NADs are available.
I made it down there yesterday evening and was disappointed yet again. Found a host of Technics "new class A' amplifiers, on particularly beefy one SU-X302. As for the sound could not judge. These were paired with a couple of 'Pro Audio ' floor standers, which were poor speakers frankly. Some guy was playing old hindi songs which I could tell were low bit-rate mp3s. An honest judgment from these 'test' parameters was just not possible.
I did find a Rotel RA-210 there, positively tiny little amplifier and for the asking price of 3000! The guy with the Pro Audio floor standers were playing the God-awful quality tracks at real loud volume, I knew could not get much attention from them this evening and so I left.

There was the usual assortment of Akai, Sansui 'A' series, Technics and Scandyna amplifiers which did not look appealing to me.
 
Yesterday, I visited MMH again, this time I found Sansui T-909 tuner, price 3K. How good is this T-909? Is it OK to spend 3K on a Tuner from 80's era?
 
I am also interested to meet u all and to visit mmh...but can't it b done on that saturday?..
Jst a thought...

I will reach Kolkata on 11th and will have to rearrange some plans and will let all know by 12 or 13th about that. I will leave Kolkata on 20th, so 18th (Sat) should be fine as of now.
Amit, Sourav, Shibahis let us know your thoughts.
 
Amit, Sourav, Shibahis, Koushik,

Sorry to jump in, I am also interested on 18th..Do you mind if I come with you...never been to MMH but sounds interesting.
 
FMs from Kolkata, no need to ask for permissions! It is not a restrictive, nor a secretive meet! Looks like it will be a sort of an audio meet without our gear, just drop a note here that you would like to be there and then lets make it happen. It will be nice to meet music lovers and people who can appreciate quality equipment, the more the better!

Do we have a time of day in mind? Considering the summer temperatures it will be best to make it in the late afternoon / early evening. Judging by the number of people interested MMH will be quite overwhelmed. :)
Perhaps we can sit somewhere afterwards and have a little discussion, maybe a nibble and a sip?
